Chili and chowder cookoff at Trackside Sunday
How do we know we’re deep into winter now? Because it’s ice bar season. And the Samoset isn’t the only one with an ice bar this weekend. With the major winter “stahm” ratcheting down to possibly rain, there’s no reason to stay inside. See what else we’ve got in store.
GLACIER Ice Bar and Lounge
Friday through Sunday, January 15 -17 — Rockland
Even with the name change from FROST to GLACIER at the Samoset Resort in Rockport, this is still "the hottest coolest bar and lounge" to hit the Midcoast.There is no cost to get in and each year Chef Tim Pierce adds some new twist to the concept. Because of its popularity, it will get super crowded later in the night, so hit it early to get luge shots and themed drinks. Wear mittens!
